  • This video shows you how I drew and painted in watercolour the olive tree that appears a fe times in my recent children's picture book, Pandora. A longish video with a lot of chat about drawing, painting, illustration and making picture books.
    The tree is a recurring theme in the book. I wanted something to connect the inside world of the story with the outside world.
    In my researches I came across the stunning wall painting in Akrotiri in Crete, dating back some 3400 years. The swallows and the lilies really got me going, and then I decided to have a lone, ancient, gnarled olive trees too, as a symbol of the mediterranean and. You can see a video about Akrotiri and the amazing wall paintings here: • Frescoes from Akrotiri...

    Loved it! It comes in handy because I want to start urban sketching but I’m bad at drawing trees and with you doing it step by step I understand more about how to lay out the structure. Thank you!

    Thank you for this! As a beginner I was getting v frustrated trying to draw or paint the olive trees where I am staying in Greece. I love these trees and last year stayed on to help with the olive harvest, catching the last boat off the island before lockdown :) Going to look at your Pandora story next.
